Meet Tenoxtitlan, Texas (1836)

Fue considerado para convertirse en capital del territorio una vez que se desligara de Coahuila.

Irónicamente, fue hasta 1846 en qué #Texas es elevado al rango de estado 🇲🇽 En realidad llevaba ya 10 años independiente.

#tenoxtitlan Image
Ese Fuerte de Tenoxtitlán fue un esfuerzo del Gral. Mier y Terán para "mexicanizar" a Texas antes tanto colono anglosajón 🇺🇸
Se fundó en 1833. Image
Este #mapa de la República de #Texas en 1844 es una muestra de aquellos años en que Tenoxtitlan estaba tan cerca de Washington (fundada en 1833).

There's no news of #Modi's visit to the #US when you turn on #CNN on TV in India.

So I looked up #NBC online.

I had to scroll past 11 screens to find any news of Modi's visit.

#XiJinping, on the other hand, was on the first screen.

These are the first six screens.

Things more important than #Modi to the #USA:

1. Missing #titanicsubmarine
2. #Biden calls #Xi a dictator
3. Two people killed in #Georgia
4. Charges against #HunterBiden
5. Sweltering heat in #Texas
6. Judge strikes down #Arkansas ban on transition care for minors

7. House vote on impeaching #Biden
8. Supreme Court #Alito
9. Limit #Chinese purchase of #US farmland
10. #Sanders to investigate #Amazon safety record
11. NH senator assaults employee
12. #Iowa building collapse
13. #Idaho man shoots 4

If you're interested in abortion numbers post-Dobbs, this thread is for you 🧵
(I'm going to reference some sources, which I'll hyperlink at the bottom of the thread, FYI)
In February I compiled a bunch of data from sources including Texas Health & Human Services, Texas Policy Evaluation Project, the Journal of the American Medical Association, & the US Census Bureau in order to figure out what abortions in Texas looked like post-Dobbs.
Since virtually all the abortion clinics in TX shut down, the obvious question for many would be, "What abortions? It's illegal now. Right?"

Wrong.

I was looking specifically for data on out-of-state abortions and mail-order abortions, and what the data suggested was tragic.

Happening Now: Public meeting of the Harris County Commissioners Court- executive body of the most populous county in #Texas.

Livestream is here (clumsy website- you'll have to scroll down and click 'watch live').

Today's agenda includes 366 items and may be found here: agenda.harriscountytx.gov
The last meeting was "volatile" to say the least, with Harris County Judge stating on the record that she had been "groped" in that room, but there has been no further information released.

I have to stop reading the internet tonight. I have never been so disgusted to be a Nebraskan as I am right now. What is going on in our Unicam now is an affront to the citizens of this state that don't believe that government should play a role in any medical decisions.

/1
This session hasn't been about doing the People's work, passing bills to make life better for ordinary Nebraskans. There's no property tax relief, no prison reform, or any decency. This is a hateful agenda, paid for by the #RickettsCabal and their (Catholic, rich) allies.

/2
It's almost like this session, Senators saw what was happening in #Florida and #Texas and thought, "hold my beer." This agenda has been nothing but divisive and cruel, pushed forward a #Christofascist platform that tests the limits of the separations of Church and State.

@1NadineSmith of @equalityfl discusses a bill in the Florida state Legislature that would ban trans athletes from participating. "This was a result of focus group testing. Trans issues make people uncomfortable."
"In Florida, we have a governor trying to outflank Trump on the right, said Nadine Smith referring to @RonDeSantisFL "He has brought all the MAGA issues to the forefront. All the rhetoric is so dehumanizing." @1NadineSmith @equalityfl #transgender

Breve 🧵 su propaganda russa e mass-shootings.

Insomma, ora viene fuori che Mauricio #Garcia, il mass shooter del #Texas che ha ucciso 8 persone tra cui un bimbo di 5 anni, era il classico MAGA filorusso malato di mente: aveva un account su un social russo,

1/➡️ Image
frequentava 4chan (la fogna del web da cui percolano le idee dell'alt-right e dove la propaganda russa regna incontrastata), seguiva Nick Fuentes (lo zerbino USA della propaganda putiniana), aveva delle svastiche tatuate e diffondeva idee antisemite.
nbcnews.com/news/us-news/t…

Se ha un account su Twitter, è sicuramente uno di quelli con bandiera russa e mattoncino, che oramai sono diventati i simboli della malattia mentale. Dovremmo iniziare a studiare i profili social dei criminali anche qui in Italia,
